Titanium - 22Ti: isotope data

The five stable Titanium isotopes are used for a wide range of studies and applications. Ti-48 is used for the production of the radioisotope V-48 which is used in nutritional studies and for calibrating PET instrumentation. Ti-47 is occasionally used as an alternative precursor for the production of V-48. Ti-50 is used in the production of super heavy elements whereby Lead or Bismuth targets are bombarded with Ti-50. Finally, Ti-49 is used in the production of the radioisotope V-49.

Naturally occurring isotopes

This table shows information about naturally occuring isotopes, their atomic masses, their natural abundances, their nuclear spins, and their magnetic moments. Further data for radioisotopes (radioactive isotopes) of titanium are listed (including any which occur naturally) below.
Isotope Mass / Da Natural abundance (atom %) Nuclear spin (I) Magnetic moment (μ/μN)
46Ti 45.9526294 (14) 8.25 (3) 0
47Ti 46.9517640 (11) 7.44 (2) 5/2 -0.78848
48Ti 47.9479473 (11) 73.72 (3) 0
49Ti 48.9478711 (11) 5.41 (2) 7/2 -1.10417
50Ti 49.9447921 (12) 5.18 (2) 0
Isotope abundances of titanium
Isotope abundances of titanium. In the above, the most intense ion is set to 100% since this corresponds best to the output from a mass spectrometer. This is not to be confused with the relative percentage isotope abundances which totals 100% for all the naturally occurring isotopes.

Radiosotope data

Further data for naturally occuring isotopes of titanium are listed above. This table gives information about some radiosotopes of titanium, their masses, their half-lives, their modes of decay, their nuclear spins, and their nuclear magnetic moments.
Isotope Mass / Da Half-life Mode of decay Nuclear spin Nuclear magnetic moment
44Ti 43.959690 67 y EC to 44Sc 0
45Ti 44.958124 3.078 h EC to 45Sc 7/2 0.095
51Ti 50.946616 5.76 m β- to 51V 0
52Ti 51.94690 1.7 m β- to 52V 3/2
